HANNIE CALDUR 1“Geez … why is he doing so many ‘takes’?”

OK … not one of My Favorite Westerns … but it was worth at least one look.
…. or two.

Ernest Borgnine: 1917 – 2012

Ernest Borgnine

“Talk about cowboys. That’s my passion. I think it’s just wonderful when the studios revert back to doing westerns again.” – Ernest Borgnine.

Ernest Borgnine (born Ermes Effron Borgnino) appeared in many Westerns (The Revengers; The Trackers; Hannie Caldur; Chuka; Manhunt; Badlanders; Vera Cruz; Johnny Guitar; The Stranger Wore a Gun …) and Television Westerns (Wagon Train; Laramie; Zane Grey Theatre …) in an entertainment career that spanned 61 years.

Try to find another screencap with this many heavyweights in it!

Why are these men smiling? Cuz they gets to play ‘Cowboy’ and gets paid fer it!

Ernest appears in two of My Favorite Westerns: The Wild Bunch and Vera Cruz.

And earns a place in my Cowboy Hall of Fame.

Ride on Ernie.

Ride on.
